Forced to Agree

At that time, she was criticized by everyone and needed others to understand what actually happened.

Ling Xue taking the initiative to show weakness made Pei Yuan, Shen Wei, and Pei Yu understand her and forgive her.

After that, Ling Xue suggested taking her to a bar. Although Pei Xin didn't really want to go, she still followed Ling Xue knowing that she had taken her spot as the Pei daughter.

As the drinks came one by one, Pei Xin's consciousness gradually blurred, and anything after the ninth shot became a blur.

When she woke up again, she was in a hotel that had a big white bed and there were messy clothes sprung everywhere. Beside her was Lu Li, who wanted to strangle her to death, and Ling Xue, who had a victorious posture. The latter was no longer as gentle and innocent as she was last night.

Because of this, Lu Li broke off the engagement with her and got engaged to Ling Xue instead.

She was pregnant. Although she did not know who the father of the child was, she still chose to keep the baby.

Her child was the only reason she had the will to survive in prison for five long years. To her, even if she suffered every terrible consequence, she would never let anything happen to her child.

In the quiet ward, Pei Xin's trembling voice sounded. "I… I'll do it. Just please, don't touch my child. My child is innocent."

That threat seemed to have exhausted all her strength. After she finished speaking, her legs turned into jelly and she fainted.

The moment Pei Xin fell to the ground, Lu Li subconsciously reached out to help her up, but Pei Yu, who was standing beside him, pulled him back. The older man looked at him as if it was a test of loyalty. Lu Li had no choice but to take back his hand resentfully.

Pei Yuan looked at the unconscious woman with an indifferent expression. "Take her for a check-up. If there's no problem, get the doctor to arrange the surgery as soon as possible."

Lu Li was the only one that followed Pei Xin to the check-up. His feelings for Pei Xin were very complicated. He had a long time to fully digest the situation that happened. He knew that his feelings for Pei Xin back then were definitely sincere. In the past, even if she became an ugly duckling, even if everyone said that she was evil and opposed them being together, he never thought of giving up on their relationship. He even planned to elope with Pei Xin when the messy situation kept getting worse at that time.

Yet, he did not expect her to play him like a fiddle. Pei Xin, who was as pure and innocent as a little white rabbit in front of him, was actually a lewd lady in her private life.

The tipping point was when he was ready to abandon everything to fight against the world for her, she fooled around with another man and even got pregnant.

While Lu Li was lost in his memories, the doctor had finished his examination. He was holding a stack of examination reports in his hand and frowned.

"Are you his family?"

The doctor's words interrupted Lu Li's train of thought. His eyes were a little glazed, and there was an aching feeling in his heart. "No, she's the volunteer that will be donating her kidney to my fiance."

Lu Li pushed up his glasses, trying to hide his emotions.

"She doesn't meet the conditions for the transplant." The doctor looked up at Lu Li from the report. Judging from the man's clothes, it was clear that their social status would never cross paths. "She has long-term malnutrition coupled with recent emotional trauma. Therefore, her body will be too weak to survive the surgery."

"Why? She's already agreed to donate her kidney. She can take responsibility for her own body after. My father-in-law said that as long as the kidneys are compatible and there are no infectious diseases, the doctors will immediately go through with the surgery." Lu Li didn't accept the doctor's conclusion.

"Mr. Lu, I'm a doctor. Not only do I have to be responsible for Ms. Ling, but I also have to be responsible for this donor." The doctor looked at Lu Li with a serious expression.

"Please tell Mr. Pei that I'm not like the Pei family's private doctor. I have the right to decide whether the surgery can be carried out. If Mr. Pei is worried about his daughter, he can take a look at the list of kidney sources that I provided previously. If you insist on using this lady's kidney, you will have to wait until she recovers."

The Pei Family and Lu family had to come to a compromise.

It was not because either was soft-hearted, but because the doctor who examined Pei Xin was Song Yi from the Song family. The Song family's status in Beijing was not comparable to the Pei family's. Even this hospital belonged to the Song family.

In the upper-class circle of the capital, no one could order anyone around except the Lu Family. However, the one in charge of the Lu Family was not Lu Li but his elder brother, Lu Huai.
